Ethyl Glucuronide (EtG) is a unique biological metabolite that is formed in the body after the consumption of ethanol, typically from drinking alcoholic beverages. Reported to be detectable in urine typically from 8-80 hours after ingestion, and 2-36 hours in blood EtG is detectable over a period roughly 5-6 times longer than traditional urine ethanol testing Detectable in oral fluid only a few hours longer than ethanol* EtG has also been isolated in hair follicles *G.Heiseth, B. Yttredal, et.al. ; JATox: July 2010
With urine EtG alcohol testing there is about an 80 hour lookback period, with hair follicle EtG alcohol testing detection is up to 90 days. EtG tests are commonly used for individuals on court ordered probation, child custody proceedings and persons in a substance abuse treatment program.
